… I now wholeheartedly believe that both Jim Cheyney (sic) and Lance Thompson have received inflammatory phone calls and text messages from Lane Kiffin and Coach O. Even Monte has gotten in on the act according to one of my sources. I did some digging yesterday and was told that late last week Coach O fired off an angry profanity laced call on one of the coaches voice mails that was saved and later played for an assemblage of coaches and support staff that greeted by laughter and cheering by those in the room. What is USC so upset about. That Tennessee would have the ‘guts’ to get this ‘improperly’ recruit USC juniors and seniors.

Poor babies.

Add in a little self-pity…

Alex reported that Kiffin said to Thompson ‘how could you do this to me. I gave you a break at UT. You can’t do this to me.’

Monte, returning from a hard but good day of surfing at Zuma Beach, gets the all hands on deck call and rushes to the aid of his boy Lane threatening to use what remains of the Tennessee coaches as sandbags while multitasking doing lawncare…

Why does Kiffykins care exactly? This frees up (much needed) scholarship space and by the time he can legitimately do anything these guys would have exhausted their eligibility. The only reason I can come up with is that the Laner plans to be coaching the Cleveland Browns in 2012 and needs to add 3-4 more wins to his resume.

I agree with you about “why should he care”. I thought that recruiting was the only thing that mattered to the Laner. Who cares if you’re getting your teeth kicked in as long as Johnny Blue Chip is coming to play for you? You must be doing something right. What say you , Tennessee fans?

Quote Of The Day

“I’m thrilled for this day to get here, and I’m excited to find out how a lot of these new guys learn. These practices are not easy, and the idea is to create adversity for your team and find out who your leaders are.” — Kirby Smart, Chattanooga Times Free Press, 8/1/17
